I like where stephen goes with the show, but i can’t avoid feeling like he is pandering to gamers out there. Don’t get me wrong i think this Simulation/video game is fucking awesome and i’m glad he did the segment. but the last thing i want is for colbert to do a “monday melee” that conan does.. or go the other way around and attack gamers for ratings like Kimmel did.﻿

Was surprised this interview happened, but I enjoyed it a lot. Colbert didn’t belittle the gamer community whatsoever and made a real effort to understand something he has little experience with. Kudos.﻿

On behalf of all gamers we want you Stephen and everyone at the Late Show to know how much it means to us to see you talking to game designers in this respectful and interesting fashion. Games are rarely taken seriously by the mainstream media but we take this hobby extremely seriously, its art, entertainment and everything in between and sometimes it combines and surpasses all of these aspects.﻿

Gaming is the thing I always make sure I have time set away for every day. That being said, I don’t understand the hype for this game, my guess is it’s just people latching on to something with a group of other people to fulfill a sense of meaning to one aspect of their life. If you really think about it…your gonna get burnt out on this game within a day. Sure it’s cool to see the various creatures and completely unfamiliar planets, but there seems to be a considerable lack of motivation, objectives, and interactivity within the game. That’s just my take.

However, I am keeping an open mind and waiting for the finished, realized project. If anyone can tell me their reasoning for falling in love with this game, please share. Maybe you’ll change my opinion. Thanks.﻿

OMG this game looks absolutely incredible. It’s sounds so crazy that I doubt what the developer is saying about how it was made is actually true. I have a feeling that most of the planets are exactly the same or are just a mix of different programed ecological elements. Like the Molbert is probably on say 1 out of every 10 planets… etc.﻿

To the ones wondering about what this game is ACTUALLY about, think of it as basically Minecraft in Space: exploration and resource gathering, with maybe (they havent been to clear on this) a P2P/PvP element, if you get around meeting someone, which will be highly difficult since the universe is so vast, unless there’s some kind of teletransport/super-mega-hyper drive feature. I’m really excited for this game, saw it at VGX and GDC and was hooked, let’s hope it’s not a Spore 2.0﻿

I love how inclusive this show is. It really shows how on-the-button the staff, as well as Colbert, is on the entertainment industry is today. I love how he doesn’t look down on people involved in the game industry and sees the significance of it technically.﻿

No mans Sky and Fall Out need to fuse. Seriously. But I love Colbert even more. Best late night talk show on TV for me. It’s mature, he brings a variety of guest. He knows when to tear up a guest because what he’s saying is kinda flawed ( like that Uber Ceo). He supports gamers. He’s funny, good monologues. He also gets after the politicians and not just plays games with them. He ask good questions. So much positives I can say. An excellent late night talk show.﻿

Colbert loves science, in his old Colbert Report show he always invited big names in Astrophysics such as Brian Cox, Brian Greene, DeGrasse Tyson. I remember Conan was interviewing Prof. Brian Cox and he kept interrupting him and made very dumb jokes and he would not let him speak.﻿

I think a huge mistake they are making is isolating players. the game will he dull and boring after a few hours of game play if you can’t play with friends. there should at least be an option to invite someone to explore the same galaxy with you. it just feels like they’re making such a huge game with endless possibilities but they are limiting the players….﻿

colbert and Stewart are really the best that are out there at portraying what actual viewers think. too bad only one of them still has a show, they don’t basically just shit on anyone. (honourable mention to jimmy fallon) they’re all just the most down to earth people out there﻿

What’s the point of a quantillion planets if they are just limited to the same types of environments? grass/rock/ice/water/desertis what I’ve seen so far in demos. If you can’t interact with the environment or the creatures, I fail to see the fun in just walking around and observing once you’ve seen all the basic types of variation.﻿

thank you Stephen for having Sean, a game dev, on your show and treating a representative of the gaming community with respect and as another person and thank you twice for bringing out one of the creators of No Man’s Sky, a game iv been following for two years now and gets better every time I hear more news about it.﻿
